Memorandum 15-037

TO:                       MAYOR PRO TEMPORE ROBERTS AND CITY COUNCIL

FROM:                 JO JOHNSON, MMC, CITY CLERK

DATE:                  MARCH 11, 2015

SUBJECT:         NATURAL GAS SPECIAL ASSESSMENT DISTRICT

March 16th is the Council’s final meeting for correcting any errors or making amendments to assessments in the properties assessed for the Homer Natural Gas Special Assessment District. Included in this packet are objections filed as of March 11th at 3:00 p.m. There are three categories including Condominiums, Financial Hardships, and Other Objections.

Objections received after the above date and time and up until the 5:00 p.m. deadline on March 16th will be provided to you in a supplemental packet.

Notices were mailed on February 18th and since that time we have been updating property ownership on the assessment roll upon receiving that information from affected property owners. When timely, new property owners were sent notices of the assessments. We have worked to make the assessment roll as clean as possible with the information we have received.

On March 23rd the final assessment roll will be presented to you. A public hearing has been scheduled for that council meeting. In anticipation of a minor change on the assessments, the public hearing is required.

RECOMMENDATION:

Review objections to assessments and determine amendments as appropriate by motion.
